TLS4: Bernard Parah on Bitcoin in Africa, Payrolls on Lightning, and African Entrepreneurs

Dec 7 2021 • 57m

Show Notes

Bernard Parah is the CEO of Bitnob, a Nigerian Bitcoin business with a Lightning Network integration.
Bernard and I spoke about the payments and savings landscape in Nigeria, the ways Bitcoin can empower Africans to push back against fees and restrictions levied by fiat payment processors, and how remote work and Bitcoin are enabling a new generation of African entrepreneurs.
This episode also features my new segment called the Lightning Round, where you can ask me your questions directly over the Lightning Network.
